wot do u think of velvet revolver?

[squeezeboxwho]

I really like them and their album very much.

Songs like slither, dirty little thing, superhuman, headspace, set me free r some killer rockers..  I still listen to contraband all the time n I love the covers, surrender n no more no more are damn good, slash sounds amazing on the two minutes in the no more no more solo...

In the past few years I haven't enjoyed a single as much as slither, good beat (matt on the drums) slash's guitar work, & scott's singing...

what do u think of slash duff and matt new band?

Some killer riffs. Overall, a little over average, that's it.

When I first new about VR I was really exicited to hear what they were gonna do I fell in love with set me free waited for the album was a bit disappointed at first but I thought about what it really means and its one of my fav albums although its one of best hard rock albums this year.

[mrlee]

well i am glad VR formed cause i like how they have brought some good rock back into, at the moment, a boring time for me personnely in music. Though i would have preffered sabo bach, but scott does a good job. Anyways if they didnt have scott there style would have been different.

There is one main problem i have with scott. In live performances instead of singing he is being a ass and messing around with that damn megaphone 

[mikegiuliana]

Mrlee he has been using the megaphone since he started in stp over ten years ago,, It's who he is..  I'm not a big fan of it but it's nothing shocking to me..

[cumbum]

I think their new band is quite awesome.
I'm not all that crazed about it.
Still cool though. ^_^

They are brilliant, not as original as g'n'r, but that is a tough act to follow, there are songs which have really grown on me, such as sucker train blues, and big machine. And Scott does really well as a frontman, trys his best.

I saw them in London, and they blew me away, scott really made his point, except the megaphone pissed everyone off a bit. But really good gig otherwise.

 

[using my illusions]

like i said in another post, they are good...compared to nickleback...

seriously though, all this talk about them being brilliant, lmao - pleeeeeease, don't lie to yourself.

As much as I tried to enjoy Contraband, I finished listening to it with a bit of an empty feeling. I'm not necassarily sure why. I think I was expecting maybe not necassarily more or better, but maybe something different. It wasn't as hard hitting as "Ain' Life Grand," in my opinion. I didn't feel like the band let loose, other than the first single Slither. The other songs, I just really couldn't connect with. Maybe I was expecting the musical brilliance of Gn'R, or the over the top aspect of Slash's Snakepit, I'm not sure. I don't know, it's not an album that I can listen to continuously.

As for Velvet Revolver itself, I'm happy all the guys are doin' well and enjoying success. I think they all deserve it after the things they had to go throw, with not only the band, but life in general.

VR & Contraband= Good          Not anything special!

Scott Wieland not one of my favorites.  I would have loved to see Buckcherry's singer (Josh Todd I believe) be there singer.
